Inch bearings

Single row angular contact ball bearings with inch dimensions also belong to the SKF standard assortment. It comprises some popular inch bearings in the ALS and AMS series (→ product table). They are mainly used in the aftermarket and, therefore, SKF recommends not to use these inch bearings for new bearing arrangement designs.

The design of inch angular contact ball bearings (fig. 1) conforms to that of the metric standard bearings, except for the contact angle (→ Bearing data).
